38073840 ÷ 278 
We want to divide 38073840 by 278.

Let's proceed to step 1:
278 can be fit into 3 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Include the next digit (8) from the dividend after 3, then repeat: 38 / 278

Going ahead to step 2:
278 can be fit into 38 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 38.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 38 after subtracting 0 from 38.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 38 and repeat the process: 380 / 278

Step 3:
278 can be fit into 380 1 times, resulting in a remainder of 102.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 278 from 380 and we're left with 102.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 102 and continue with: 1027 / 278

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 278 fits into 1027 3 times, leaving a remainder of 193.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 834 away from 1027, we end up with 193.
Take the next digit (3) from the dividend and append it to 193, then repeat: 1933 / 278

Moving on to step 5:
278 goes into 1933 6 times with a remainder of 265.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 136.0
Subtract 1668 from 1933 to get 265.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 265, then carry on: 2658 / 278

Going ahead to step 6:
2658 divided by 278 is 9 with a remainder of 156.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1369.0
If we subtract 2502 from 2658, we get 156.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 156, then repeat: 1564 / 278

Step 7:
1564 divided by 278 is 5 with a remainder of 174.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13695.0
Deduct 1390 from 1564 and we're left with 174.
Bring next digit (0) of the dividend behind the 174 and repeat the process: 1740 / 278

Step 8:
When dividing 1740 by 278, we get 6 with a remainder of 72.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 136956.0
Subtracting 1668 from 1740 leaves us with 72.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 720, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
278 goes into 720 2 times with a remainder of 164.
The next digit of our result is 2. 
Result so far: 136956.2
The remainder is 164 after subtracting 556 from 720.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
The number 278 fits into 1640 5 times, leaving a remainder of 250.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 136956.25
Deduct 1390 from 1640 and we're left with 250.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2500, and continue the process.

On to step 11:
The number 278 fits into 2500 8 times, leaving a remainder of 276.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 136956.258
Deduct 2224 from 2500 and we're left with 276.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2760, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
When dividing 2760 by 278, we get 9 with a remainder of 258.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 136956.2589
Subtract 2502 from 2760 to get 258.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 2580 by 278, we get 9 and a remainder of 78.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 136956.25899
If we subtract 2502 from 2580, we get 78.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 780, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 136956.25899, with a leftover of 7.8e-05.
